    What's special

    Sleeping nooksMature desert landscapingBuilt-in dining banquetteNew spanish tile roofsKeyless entryOff-street parkingCedar soaking tub
    The year was 1940, and someone in Twentynine Palms had the right idea—to build two Spanish bungalows that embraced the romance of the desert: fresh air, plain living and a sky full of stars. Today, that vision lives on in Josh + Tam, a thoughtfully restored two-home compound set on a single parcel in the heart of Twentynine Palms, located just minutes from the pristine entrance of Joshua Tree National Park. A personal project of Krieglelein Design—the creative team behind the interiors of the nearby Ramsey 29 motel—the homes have been carefully reimagined with an emphasis on creativity, simplicity, and the quiet rhythms of desert living. Though nearly identical in footprint, each home carries its own distinct mood. Josh opens naturally to morning light and the built-in dining banquette, while Tam feels slightly more secluded, with a stronger connection to its surrounding courtyard and landscape. Original vaulted ceilings create volume and light throughout, while built-in dining banquettes, sleeping nooks, curated original and vintage artwork, and layered textiles give the interiors warmth and character. Outdoor living remains central to the experience. Mature desert landscaping, shaded patios, an ocotillo-covered pergola, and a cedar soaking tub create a series of private outdoor spaces designed for gathering, retreat, and long desert evenings outdoors. Each home is separately fenced with its own entrance, offering flexibility for personal use, multi-generational living, or curated hospitality. The property boasts a highly successful, proven track record as a top-rated vacation destination with an established guest following. Updated systems include new Spanish tile roofs, mini-split heating and cooling, tankless water heaters, keyless entry, and timed irrigation supporting the established landscape. Offered fully furnished per inventory—including original artwork, curated vintage furnishings, and collected design elements integral to the identity of the spaces—Josh + Tam represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully realized desert compound where architecture, art, landscape, and atmosphere combine to create a place of repose, purpose, and belonging. Buyer to verify local Short-Term Rental permit guidelines and city caps with the City of Twentynine Palms.
